I saw a highlight of an alleged serious injury. I do not know how who or for how long, but it must have been substantial. Funny thing is, had it been the first half they would not have added that much time.
Two comments:
I said alleged serious injury. I do not know, as I did not follow-up. However, watching so many bullshit injuries take place throughout the years I tend to be a skeptic. For example, see Neymar rolling around in 4 circles, trying to get up only to fall and roll again and so on after his cleat was touched (I know extreme example).
I understand Futbol does not like change. I have never understood what is so difficult about stopping a clock and then simply restarting the clock when play is resumed. It only has to be done for injuries. It is so arbitrary as to what time is or is not added.
I have been a soccer fan for years and played through 2 years of college. I enjoy the sport and have been a proponent for years. I appreciate the beauty of the sport when played at its optimum level.
Simply had never see 10 minutes extra time ever. I had seen 7-8 minutes a handful of times. Oh well.
